24、阅读短文，从下面所给的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，其中有一个多余的选项。

During the 2016 Rio Olympics, people were surprised to see the round, purple marks on the body of the famous American swimmer Michael Phelps. 【1】 In fact, he just visited a doctor of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and had “cupping (拔火罐)”.

Massage (推拿) and acupuncture (针灸) are two other important kinds of TCM. Chinese massage can make you relaxed and fresh. Acupuncture takes away pain, though the look is funny.

【2】 The earliest medical classic in China, Huangdi’s Classic on Medicine, came out more than 2, 000 years ago. The book is about the relationship between man and nature. In Chinese culture, yin and yang are the two parts of nature. Nature keeps balanced if yin and yang work well together. The human body needs such a balance, too. TCM helps to do that. Quite specially, for some health problems, a doctor of TCM will not give you medicine. 【3】 For example, it is common to eat on the way to school, at our desk, or in front of the TV. But TCM thinks it’s wrong. Here are the correct ways. Sit down to eat. While eating, turn off the TV and get away from the work desk. Eat seasonal foods. 【4】 Also, get your body moving often, just as the saying goes, “Running water is never stale (不新鲜)”.

Nowadays, traditional Chinese medicine is becoming more and more popular around the world. A government report says that people in 183 countries and areas are now using TCM.

A．TCM is an important part of Chinese culture.

B．What happened to him?

C．Instead, he may give you just a food plan and right ways to eat.

D．Do not miss any of the three meals.

E．You can do some exercise such as swimming and jogging.

26、   How do you deal with plastic bags from the supermarket? Throw them away or recycle them? How about eating them?

The bags are no harmful to the environment. Humans and animals can safely eat them. Indian company EnviGreen has made a bag with natural material. It looks and feels just like plastic,  but can break down （分解）easily. 

Ashwath Hedge who set up the EnviGreen company spent four years doing experiments with 12 natural material. They include potato, corn, vegetable oil and banana. He made the material into liquid and used the liquid to make the bag.

Although the EnviGreen bag is more expensive than a common plastic bag, but it has many advantages. According to the Wall Street Journal, it takes 1, 000 years for common plastic bags to break down. But an EnviGreen bag can naturally break down in less than 180 days. It also breaks down in less than a day in water, and in less than a minute in boiling water. Hedge was happy to show it in his interview with The Better India. In the interview, he put an EnviGreen bag in water and ate it with a smile.

There are more than 15, 000 tons of plastic waste every day. But only 9, 000 tons are processed. In China, 3 billion plastic bags are used every day. Maybe the EnviGreen hag could be a solution to the world problem of plastic pollution.

27、   Many years ago, I was a shy boy and lived a very peaceful life. I liked school but I felt bored.

Fifty years have passed, but my teacher still remembers every student. She even doesn't forget the class bully（恶棍）—a boy used to hit me with snow balls on my way to school. Lots of teachers thought bullying was nothing serious at that time, but Mrs. Chen didn't agree. She put a stop to it at once when she found out about it, But on that special day, she didn't look down upon him because she knew that everyone deserves（应得） a second chance.

Now, in my mid—fifties, I appreciate the gifts Mrs. Chen has given me even more. I can still learn from her. It's never too late to say thanks to this fantastic teacher. I hope you are lucky enough to have one teacher like Mrs. Chen.

In the past ten years, many scientists have studied the differences between men and women. And they all got the s【1】 answer: The sexes (性别) are different, b【2】 their brains are different. And this, the scientists say, makes men and women see the world in d【3】 ways.

Boys, for example, generally are better than girls at mathematical ideas. Boys also generally are better than girls at the kind of hand and eye movements necessary for ball sports. Girls, on the other hand generally start speaking e【4】 than boys. And they generally see better in the dark than boys and are better at learning f【5】 languages.

What m【6】 men and women better at one thing or another? The answer is the brain. The brain has two sides connected by nerve(神经) tracks. The left side generally is used for mathematics, speech and w【7】. The right side is used for artistic creation and the e【8】 for emotions. In men and women, different areas in each side of the brain d【9】 differently. In boys, for example, it’s the area used for mathematics. In girls, it is the area used for language skills. Another interesting difference is that the two sides of a man’s brain are c【10】 by smaller nerves than the two sides of a woman’s brain are.
